In Denver, we’re very fortunate to have an area dairy that does residence supply and makes the most effective eggnog I’ve ever had. So thick that when my children had been younger, we used to have to chop it with milk…it actually was that wealthy and creamy and superb and…nicely, you get my drift proper?

Hats off to Royal Crest Dairy for all the time doing it proper and particularly now that it’s in Sprouts regionally…sure! That it was good on this cocktail needs to be no shock however the mixture of eggnog, chocolate and bourbon certain had been. I’m in love.
Pay attention, I do know I’ve posted this recipe REALLY late within the sport…however I made it for firm final evening and nicely, it’s both immediately or I wait one other yr…so right here we’re. Plus it’s straightforward sufficient to make if in case you have the components.

Chocolate Eggnog with Bourbon? It’s critically OMG superb; earlier than the vacations are over you merely have to do this. Actually why have I by no means executed this earlier than??? It’s not sophisticated both; you mix chopped chocolate with cocoa powder and a small quantity of milk and warmth till the chocolate is melted and all is mixed. I whipped the eggnog to get it frothy, added it to the cooled chocolate combined and combined in my favourite bourbon earlier than grating extra chocolate on high. SO value that little little bit of effort.
If making your individual is your factor, I did make my very own final yr. Whereas I’ll gamble with utilizing contemporary eggs in some dishes, once I got down to make an eggnog recipe for a cocktail final yr I made a decision to not threat it for others and I’ve to be sincere, I anticipated to be dissatisfied.
, pondering that by some means the warmth would completely break the completed consequence? I used to be fallacious, utterly fallacious. So if you’re inclined to make your individual, do that Do-it-yourself Vanilla Eggnog with Bourbon which is heated sufficient to make it secure for all…and simply add the chocolate element.
Have I discussed that is superb? I’ve? Greater than as soon as? I simply can’t recover from how scrumptious the mix of chocolate and bourbon are in eggnog…you could strive it too!
A very powerful a part of this cocktail is the standard of components. Chances are you’ll not have entry to an area product like I do however purchase product. Use fine quality eggnog, chocolate and bourbon and the consequence will hopefully astound you too.
I’m not going to say it once more however I may, oh what the heck…it’s SO good! I’ve acquired to get out and discover some extra eggnog stat…if the phrase will get out in Denver about this recipe; I received’t be capable of discover any Royal Crest Dairy Eggnog at Sprouts for New Years and it simply received’t be the identical…so I’m off to the market and try to be too; fast, like a bunny…get your eggnog now!
